No, Vegans Don’t Kill More Animals than Meat Eaters

<p>Some people hate that other people don&rsquo;t eat meat. The&nbsp;<em>Guardian</em>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2019/oct/25/why-do-people-hate-vegans" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">carries</a>&nbsp;a thoughtful primer by the London food writer George Reynolds on this phenomenon. Reynolds prominently notes a 2015 study that finds vegans are hated most by (surprise!) people who occupy the right-wing political ideology. Vegans were hated more than any other group except drug addicts, Reynolds writes.</p> <p>Conservative anxiety about veganism makes sense. The lifestyle&rsquo;s increasing prevalence represents a shift in social mores that places more value on animal life, and conservatives, by definition, dislike change.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/age-of-awareness/no-vegans-dont-kill-more-animals-than-human-omnivores-a1975d1a497c"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
